Shen Zihao’s car pulled up at the Shen villa.
Before it could even stop completely, Shen Liangchuan had already jumped out and started limping towards the door and into the house.
When Auntie Li saw him, she was surprised. “Sir?”
He immediately asked, “Where’s Madam?”
Auntie Li replied as she glanced at the second floor, “Madam took Young Master Xiao Yi to the airport this morning and she has not been back since.”
She had seen him off in the morning.
Shen Liangchuan’s pupils shrank as he quickly asked, “Did Madam take any suitcases with her when she left?”
Auntie Li shook her head. “No, Madam was seeing Xiao Yi off, why would she take her suitcase with her?”
Shen Liangchuan was momentarily relieved, but he saw Auntie Li frown at this point. “But when Young Master Xiao Yi left, he took two suitcases with him.”
Two suitcases.
Shen Liangchuan had just heaved a sigh of relief, but his heart sank right away again.
As though he had suddenly thought of something, he asked, “Did Madam say anything before she left?”
Auntie Li immediately said, “Oh, yes… There’s a document for you in the study.”
In the study.
Limping, he took big strides to the stairs and went up to the second floor.
As his leg was in a cast, it was immobile and made going up the stairs difficult. But he didn’t seem to notice the difficulty as he dashed upstairs and walked into his study.
Everything in the study looked the same, yet there was a document on the desk.
After pausing for a moment, he took a few steps forward.
When his gaze fell on the document, his pupils shrank.
The words “Divorce Agreement” on the cover page unexpectedly appeared before him.
He felt as though he had been struck by lightning, as though a loud thunder seemed to have fallen on his ears.
Just as though everything before him now was fake.
He opened his eyes and saw her standing next to him.
But when he looked carefully again, the divorce agreement was still sitting coldly on the desk.
His hands were trembling now, and he didn’t even dare to continue walking forward.
At this point, Xia Yehua, Shen Zihao and Xia Nuannuan charged into the room.
All three of them shifted their gaze onto the divorce agreement.
Xia Yehua’s pupils shrank when she saw this. She cried out in alarm, “What happened? Where’s Xiao Qiao?”
There was a bleakness in her voice that was heart-wrenching.
Xia Nuannuan felt a sharp, stinging sensation in her eyes.
Shen Zihao looked startled by what he was seeing. “Big- Big Brother… did you have a fight with sister-in-law?”
Xia Yehua looked at Shen Liangchuan and asked, “Liangchuan, what did you do? Why has Xiao Qiao gone away?”
Why had she gone away?
Shen Liangchuan felt all the energy draining out of him. His legs gave way as he fell on a chair by the wall.
Indeed.
Xiao Qiao, why have you gone away?
Where are you?
As these thoughts ran through his mind, he suddenly heard Xia Nuannuan say, “There’s a letter here.”
A letter.
Shen Liangchuan’s head snapped up and looked at her at once. She walked over to him with the letter. “It’s for Big Brother!”
Hands trembling, Shen Liangchuan reached out for the letter and unfolded it. He recognized Qiao Lian’s handwriting right away:
“Zi Chuan,
By the time you’re reading this letter, I will probably be gone.
I’ve always felt that meeting you again after eight years was a blessing from the heavens.
But I never would have imagined that my blessing was built upon your pain.
I finally understand why you hid the truth of what happened eight years ago from me.
Now I’ve finally learnt the truth.
I have left.
Please, don’t look for me.”
